Equipped with a high-flow pump, a robust 360mm radiator, and three daisy-chainable fans, this graphics card combines power and luxury in a way unmatched by others. The auction attracted numerous participants, with bids reaching $10,000 on the first day alone.
Ultimately, Roman ‘der8auer’ Hartung, a renowned figure in PC hardware and the CEO of Thermal Grizzly, secured the winning bid with an impressive $16,000. Expressing his excitement, der8auer, a longtime Matrix card collector, highlighted the special addition to his collection. He also emphasized the significance of contributing to Make-A-Wish, stating, “And to have the money go to a great cause like Make-A-Wish is just the cherry on top.”
